The Ultimate Flourless Chocolate Cookies
Description
The Ultimate Flourless Chocolate Cookies mix almond butter and sugars with eggs, vanilla, and coconut oil to create a smooth dough. Almond flour and cocoa powder contribute flavor and structure, while baking soda and salt provide leavening and balance. The dough is scooped generously and spaced to allow puffing and spreading during 12-minute baking at 350°F. The result is puffed, crackled cookies with a tender but substantial texture, scattered with chunks of sugar-free chocolate for added interest.
These cookies serve as a satisfying treat that does not contain flour, enhancing their appeal for specialized diets. Their texture is soft yet holds shape well when cooled on racks. Storage at room temperature keeps them fresh for several days. They can be enjoyed alone or with coffee and milk.
Refer to an egg substitute chart for making these cookies without eggs if necessary.
